    A Vz. 58 or an SKS in 5.45x39 would be an interesting gun indeed, considering 5.45x39 7N6 is extremely ballistically superior to the standard 7.62x39 round. I've fired plenty of 5.45 AK's in the US and I can tell you that they're both softer shooting and more accurate than a 7.62x39 AK or SKS.

    There is SO MUCH of this ammo and it's still being churned out today in multiple places around the world. I think we're missing an opportunity by not having a nice tactical rifle in this caliber.

    I know IMI is planning to put out a 5.45mm Tavor variant, I think within the year, as part of their move to production in the states. I'd be pretty interested in 5.45 in a non-restricted bullpup rifle that's for damn sure. (I'm not sure but it might even be a caliber conversion kit and we could have both? It looks easy enough with the barrel nut and so forth) :P

    The Tavor 5.45x39 conversion kit from IWI US should have no trouble fitting in Canadian Tavors.

    If SFRC had a line on surplus ammo, I would look at exporting one of the kits from the states post-haste.

    There is an XCR-l 5.45 conversion kit in the states apparently.
    What do you think of Jan1968?

    I think of a gun owner and remove reason and accountability.
